Tweet Picks:
@e_russell Europe OKs suspension of strict ‘use-it or lose-it’ slot rules amid coronavirus outbreak.
@WandrMe $AAL says it may accelerate 757 retirement, on top of E90s and other previously planned moves, to help improve cashflow/operations. #AvGeek.
@winglets747 Fast-forward 12-18 months, that’s a lot of product development in addition to 777-8 certification. (Assume -9 and all MAX variants flying.) Airbus in comparison has light certification work for A321 variants. Ample engineering capacity to do an A350 freighter.
@winglets747 Qantas will shift its Singapore stopover to Perth while Air New Zealand is seeing passengers book travel from Europe via North America instead of on partner airlines via Asia.
@winglets747 Scoot will resume some flights to China this week – but only for cargo as China ramps up economic output and supply chains regain order. Asia – where the virus first took hold – is beginning to look past the crisis that now grips North America and Europe.
